There's a celestial event on the horizon that has captured the imagination of astronomers and adventurers alike—the 2024 Total Solar Eclipse. This rare phenomenon will cast its shadow across the United States, with the city of Dallas finding itself in the path of totality. Prepare to be mesmerized as the moon aligns with the sun, offering an awe-inspiring spectacle that promises to leave a lasting impression.
Join us in Dallas to witness this breathtaking event and immerse yourself in a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Join more than 20 astronomers and fellow enthusiasts at the Perot Museum, partnering with the Carnegie Institute of Science, for an awe-inspiring event from 10 AM to 4 PM.
Join us in Downtown Dallas for the total solar eclipse! DDI will host a lunchtime watching event complete with live music, food trucks, family friendly activities, shopping, an interactive art installation and complimentary eclipse glasses (limited quantity). Make it a staycation or vacation! There will be festivities all weekend long including a special interactive art installation, Video Art Nights with Aurora, a Spring Stroll, and much more.

For the celestial event, Hôtel Swexan is putting out its telescope and offering guests access to its 20th-floor rooftop pool for viewing. It will also provide eclipse glasses for safety. And, to make it an even more special experience, the hotel is offering a meditation and sound bath with Breathe Meditation and Wellness' Jacquelyn Maitland, who will also be on hand to discuss the significance of the New Moon and Solar Eclipse and its energetic influence.
The Lunar Light: Discovery is a mixed-reality mission on the moon. We are hosting an eclipse party before new missions start that day. We'll supply the biggest open space in Dallas for viewing the moon as it blocks out the sun for four minutes. You supply the protective glasses, or purchase onsite. The Officers Club will be open for drinks and MRE's. Watch the eclipse, then visit the moon!
Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden
Save the date for the Great American Eclipse! We are less than one year away from a total solar eclipse in North Texas and we can’t think of a better vantage point than the Arboretum garden during Dallas Blooms. Tickets for guests will open for purchase in December.
